Lyrics

Out of sight and out of mind
Don?t try to tell me no more that you?re color blind
Water comin? up, can?t leave town
I?m sinking down

No bank account, no credit card
No health insurance, I ain?t got no car
Water comin? up, can?t leave town
I?m sinking down

You can see on TV, so much black and brown skin
Ain?t nothin? new, this original sin
Our kids been starvin? since I don?t know when
But now they?re starvin? on CNN

Might call it looting, you might call it theft
But it?s just surviving when you got nothing left
Livin? on the edge, right on the brink
I don?t give a damn what you think

Too poor to leave, no help on the way
I hear that your pets got out but we got to stay
Water?s comin? up, can?t leave town
Water?s comin? up, can?t leave town
Water?s comin? up, and I believe I?m sinking down
